Suzi shares: "Romeo was brought home, rescued from wandering around a flea market at about 9 wks.
After multiple vet visits to get him healthy he has grown into this sweet, thinks he's a dog little big lovie dovie.
His feet are huge! A tail that could double as a duster. His eyes and face make me think he is mixed with Maine Coon."
